Comments about Product:I love the wreath. I did read other reviews and they said the colors were not as they appear online. The blue was not as bright and the colored shells were more green than blue. It does have an order, but I think it will go away eventually. Probably the natural materials used to make it.

Comments about Product:Absolutely love this wreath! It is so fragrant and the colors are so natural and neutral but with an added flair. I spent many years living near the beach and now am in the landlocked midwest. What a great way to bring some of the beach to me - and have it displayed year round

Comments about Product:I recently painted my bathroom blue and was looking for a wreath with a beach theme to go along with a shadowbox wall hanging of seashells that I already owned. This wreath looked perfect on-line and is even prettier in person. It really stands out against a blue wall and looks striking. It is of excellent quality and arrived in great shape. My only complaint is that the company charges your credit card BEFORE they can even ship the product. Most companies, when items are on back-order or currently unavailable for any reason, do not charge your account until the item is available to ship. This item was charged to my account approximately 30 days before it was shipped. That just isn't a good business practice. [...] doesn't charge your account until they can ship. However, this wreath is prettier than the one that [...] carries and so I ordered it even though I don't care for that policy. Please reconsider your billing policy for future customers. Thank you!

The Olla: A Brief History

Olla (Spanish, pronounced “oh-ya”) jars have been around since ancient times. Made of unglazed ceramic, ollas traditionally have short, narrow necks with wider bodies, and are made in a variety of shapes. They have been used for thousands of years for cooking, storage, and plant irrigation.

When used to irrigate plants, an olla is buried neck-deep in the ground near a plant’s roots, with the opening of the olla extended above the soil so that it can be filled with water periodically. The porous walls of the unglazed pottery allow the water to seep through gradually, constantly and consistently hydrating the plants without overwatering them – and without wasting precious water to evaporation or runoff.

The use of ollas for irrigation was introduced to the American Southwest by Spanish conquistadors during Colonial times, becoming very common among Native American tribes and Hispanic settlers. Though the technique gave way to more modern methods of irrigation some time ago, its superior efficiency, coupled with its simplicity, has caused it to make a comeback. Though the technique has changed little since its introduction, today’s ollas are usually capped off, making them even more water-efficient.

Perfect for home gardens, Ollas are a super-easy, eco-friendly, less time-consuming way to water annuals, perennials, herbs, vegetables and plants of all kinds in dry, sandy soil, very hot or drought-prone areas, raised beds, and even pots, planters and hanging baskets. Fill the olla before you leave on a short vacation to enjoy worry-free watering – and a smaller water bill!
